Motorcycles transport

Motorbikes and
mopeds are not only expensive, but also
not easy to protect when
shipped. Although, it turns out that the majority depends on the way we do it and how
much prior experience with transport we have. It is feasible
to ship a motorcycle or a moped without hussle,
undoubtedly. The way it will be secured depends on the method of transportation.
Thanks to some valuable tips you
can avoid any damages, and dents that
may happen if a scooter or motorbike is not properly cared for.

When you are
shipping your motorbike
using a trailer you will need 4 strapping belts to
strap it down. If you use a trailer specially
created for motorbikes or scooters, it already
is equipped with the rail that stabilises the motorbike.
In this situation you will need only 2 strapping
belts. It is crucial to use
a closed hook at the ends of the belts, rather than an open one. The closed
hook will not open up by accident during the
shipment.

It is also worth looking at
the sharp angles or parts that may
possibly cut the belts and hinder your efforts.
It's also possible to transport a
motorbike in a van. The protection and
equipment required to keep the
motorbike mounted safely in one
place will not differ too much from other ways mentioned above.
One thing to be
considered is the installation of the side pads to
prevent any damage to the insides of the van
and other objects that might be transported just next to the motorcycle.

There are also platforms that
hooked to a car or van, can help
you transport your motorcycle not occupying
the entire space in the truck.

It is important
to check with the shipping company if
the equipment they provide will be enough to ship
your motorbike. For instance, using a wooden
platform for lifting your motorbike and
loading it in a truck could pose danger to people providing
the service or pedestrians passing by, but could also cause serious
damage to your motorbike/motorcycle.

Many of these companies can
adjust the transport, so that they can use the
full capacity of their trucks. Thanks to that,
shipment gets cheaper and more environmentally
friendly with less and less ”empty running”.
